Photos and videos on social media appeared to show throngs of protesters marching under the banner of the Patriot Front, characterized by the Anti-Defamation League and the Southern Poverty Law Center as a white supremacist group.
"No place was more central to the birth of our most fundamental democratic ideals than the Old State House," Revolutionary Spaces President and CEO Nathaniel Sheidley said in a statement."The presence in its shadow of those who would reject these ideals is an important reminder that democracy is fragile and the work of building a society rooted in liberty and justice for all is not finished.
City Councilor At-Large Ruthzee Louijeune said the protesters are"Cowards, all of them. No place for what they're selling in our city." "This is disgusting. Hate groups have no place in our society," City Councilor Ricardo Arroyo said in a tweet."Boston is for everyone, recognizes the gift that is our diversity, and will never cower or capitulate to hate."
Gross. Pretty sure the masks aren’t being worn for public health concerns. Cowards, all of them. No place for what they’re selling in our city.
